Item No.: *
Site: Buffet-Oceanview - Port and Starboard Beverage Stations
Violation: In each beverage station there were two portable self-service milk dispensers on the counter. Staff stated that the containers were removed and rewashed as part of the refilling process, but there were no clean replacement dispensers in either the clean or soiled side of the dishwash and the dispensers required disassembly to wash completely. Recommend a minimum two spare dispensers be stored clean for the refill process on each beverage station to assure a clean dispenser is always available.
Recommendation:
Item No.: 10
Site: Recreational Water Facilities-Shock Chlorination
Violation: For the Solarium Feature Pool and the whirlpool spas, many of the written records indicated that during shock chlorination the water was circulated for less than 60 minutes. The records were reviewed and signed.
Recommendation: Increase the free residual halogen to at least 10.0 mg/L (ppm) and circulate for at least 1 hour every 24 hours. Test the free residual halogen both at the start and completion of shock halogenation. Superhalogenate the water in the entire RWF system to 10 ppm to include the whirlpool spa/spa pool tub, compensation tank, filter housing, and all associated piping before starting the 1-hour timing. Ensure a written or electronic record of the date and time of water dumping and shock halogenation (concentration in ppm at the start and completion and time) is available for review during inspections.

Recommendation: If an animal food such as beef, eggs, fish, lamb, milk, pork, poultry, or shellfish that is raw, undercooked, or not otherwise processed to eliminate pathogens is offered in a ready-to-eat form or as a raw ingredient in another ready-to-eat food, ensure the consumer is informed by way of disclosure using menu advisories, placards, or other easily visible written means of the significantly increased risk to certain especially vulnerable consumers eating such foods in raw or undercooked form. Locate the advisory at the outlets where these types of food are served. Ensure that raw shell egg preparations are not used in uncooked products as described in section 7.3.3.2.3. Ensure that disclosure is made by one of the two following methods: (1) On a sign describing the animal-derived foods (e.g., ?oysters on the half-shell,? ?hamburgers,? ?steaks,? or ?eggs?); AND that they can be cooked to order and may be served raw or undercooked; AND a statement indicating that consuming raw or undercooked meats, seafood, shellfish, eggs, milk, poultry may increase your risk for foodborne illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions. Ensure the advisory is posted at the specific station where the food is served raw, undercooked, or cooked to order OR (2) On a menu using an asterisk at the animal-derived foods requiring disclosure and a footnote with a statement indicating that consuming raw or undercooked meats, seafood, shellfish, eggs, milk, or poultry may increase your risk for foodborne illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions.
